RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Hi all! I've been very Name:  busy[1].gif
Views: 102
Size:  13.3 KB nod switched from Verizon back to Comcast (nightmare but done now). Tried to set something up on FB we could all use just for shares and stuff for contests to keep it off our timelines, but I still can't get some stuff right so I will get back to it later (maybe with Cindy's help Big Grin). Retiring next month so lots of paperwork etc. Working in the garden and getting the pool ready, and so on....you know how it is. Hope everyone is doing well, I will probably be catching up for the next few days so I will be in and out.wave

I created this along time ago when I was starting to try to figure out what kind of thing I wanted to do instead of the google doc. I found I can switch back and forth between mine and this one by going up to the right and switching. I think if you make a facebook page just for sweeps then you can have your personal one for personal stuff and friends and when you go to enter sweeps just go up to the right and click use facebook as........ That or set each one you enter to viewable only by me setting but thats a pain isnt it Blondeey????
As you can see I couldnt figure out how to do facebook for sweeps!! LOL https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fu...3567675460

Well, so far I made a group (open to public now and all can see) Funny Farm Friends SD. It shows up on my FB page (as it should yours) at left column near bottom after friends, family, etc. any member can invite anyone to join. When I enter a contest if it has a "show/share on your own timeline or" (at upper left usually) I use the down arrow by it to select "group" I only have to type 1st letter and the group comes up. Also, if there is a contest on your own wall and you want to share you can just share with group. I did have it "private group" while I was trying to set it up, but found I also had to choose "specific friends or lists" when entering some of the contests, so I made a list that said "Funny Farm" from certain friends. I think I'm sort of on the right track but hate FB timeline and they should make this easier to do. I'm sure we are not the only people on FB that want to do this (but they want you to involve Every One of your friends-greedy so and so's) Any ideas????

Once again, I have no clue what yu just said. Pain or no pain, I just share and ruin his and my facebook pages. I wish I could understand. However, I thought about your list. If I open the regular aol mail (not my aol that I pay for) in the explorer which I can, a different format than what I use, I will be in the explorer already and I may then be able to copy and paste. I will try it later. I have been trying to track down a case for the Asus transformer. Even Asus does not have it any more because they have new models out now. I will go to Best buy which is next door to Pet Smart tomorrow. charging it now, which is a plus. At least it is finally out of the box. Thanks for the list and everything. Should I be doing what you just said above? I really do not understand.

Only setting up 2 separate facebook pages. Ive tried everything I know how to do and cant figure anything out. I only use facebook for contests and tell anyone who wants to friend me that its only for sweeps and I can add them if they dont mind being spammed!! My sister just refuses to have friends!! I'll keep looking into it some more but facebook is free and they make their money by getting kickbacks and ads so they have no real incentive to keep that stuff off our timelines

I tried it on aol and it did not work. I will try it on facebook but then I have to write the code down and go back and forth from aol to firefox. Life is great. Do you know if you email someone once can you do that same person again?

I was commenting on when you used to delete each one off his facebook!! So much trouble!!! So much extra work just to make it look nice and not full of sweepstakes.

This would be for ANGIE - I may be wrong, but I think you said you bought the Asus right after I got mine? Did you? I cannot find a case. Going to Best Buy tomorrow to put that shield on the screen and they only have a sleeve. That is not sturdy enough I do not think. Did you find a case - soft? I did research this morning, called asus and the other night ebags and they only have sleeves. I finally used my ebags gc for myself from last year. I am sorry if it was not you with the asus.

I no longer delete sweeps off his. He disowned his facebook page. We just do not discuss it any more. When his friends write something, he told me to say we are winning stuff - sorry. Sometimes we put if it is annoying just block him. Big Grin
